September 4, 2023 - First glass was the best. Light golden color, with reduction and French oak signature. A little fat in the mouth, tropical fruits with some yellow peach, and I could go for more acid but it’s pretty nice. The VV is a noticeable step up

July 2, 2023 - Heldere goudgele kleur - Neus van citrusschil en karamel - Romige textuur van citrus, wit steenfruit, ananas en kokos - Zéér lange afdronk - Zal nog gunstig evolueren de volgende jaren.

June 25, 2023 - Extracted 1/2 bottle via Coravin. Drank after 30 min in the carafe. The color is a full straw yellow, hinting at weight to come. The nose has lemon and orange peel, peach, hints of caramel. The palate has a viscous almost oily feel with flavors of steely stone fruit and melon, with underlying savory herbs, vanilla, and creamy citrus. Very long finish that develops over a minute or more with some salinity expressed at the end. The wine has amazing body for a white and pairs well with dishes such as a roasted branzino with cherry tomatoes drizzled with grassy EVOO. ABV 14%.
